Country sausage/16 recipes

Bell peppers and sausages are cooked in a tasty tomato sauce, then served over a bed of warm penne. An ideal meal for a busy week night.

Modified from a fine cooking recipe for a more reasonable serving size, a cheesy Italian baked pasta dish that's satisfying and filling for two.

This Thanksgiving stuffing is packed with fresh seasonal flavors. Will stuff a 10 to 16 pound turkey which serves up to 10 people.

Easy and tasty meatballs, these are great for meatball subs.

My wife has an excellent recipe for White Bread brought to this country from her grandmother who was originally from Poland. Makes 5 loaves. Typically, this style of bread would be served with baked ham. However it can go with almost anything. Stale leftovers can make excellent French toast.

Crescent City Red Beans & Rice slow cooker recipe

While this cold salad has some elements of a traditional warm German potato salad, it is totally Americanized to suit my family's tastes. Great with grilled burgers, dogs, meats and poultry.

Just like grandma used to make!

Italian sausage in gravy surrounded by fluffy sage biscuits. The biscuits puff up around the edges like a flower with sweet Italian sausage gravy bubbling away in the center.

Homemade mild Chorizo sausage.

Cheesy polenta topped with eggs and a bit of Italian or Turkey sausage, perfect for a Sunday brunch. Any cheese could be used but my favorite is Fontina or an old flavor filled cheddar. Similar to sausage, eggs and potato but much healthier with perfect matching of flavors. Very easy to halve the recipe along with pictures.

A delicious and wholesome meal. Try to use whole wheat rigatoni if you can, it makes the dish even heartier.

I was out of Tofurkey Italian Sausage tonight and needed to substitute something else because I can't buy it. I had a cupboard full of Bob's Vital Wheat Gluten and some TVP, so I figured I'd try making it. When my hubby came home, he tried it and immediately said "Write it down! Write it down!" I guess he liked it!
